M644 Gunmetal

Odyssey Fabric

M644 Gunmetal pairs a deep taupe-grey ground with a repeating arrangement of outlined diamonds and angular chevrons. Its softly mottled surface gives the pattern a subdued, tactile depth rather than a high-contrast finish.

About this fabric

The colour sits between charcoal grey and warm brown, creating the grounded appearance associated with gunmetal while retaining a gentle, earthy undertone. Fine pale threads pick out nested diamond forms across the surface, with intersecting diagonal lines adding rhythm without making the design feel busy. The visible weave has a lightly irregular, brushed look that softens the geometry and makes this colourway read as quietly textured. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use M644 Gunmetal on a tailored armchair, sofa or headboard where its deep taupe-grey tone can anchor lighter stone, chalk and natural timber finishes. Repeat the diamond geometry sparingly with plain cushions so the woven pattern remains the room’s subtle point of structure.

The restrained gunmetal ground and softly picked-out diamonds bring quiet structure to tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside M644 Gunmetal without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
